I've spent a lot of time looking at pluto/fc4 recently.  And I'm very
much still in a 'wtf' mode.  Pluto creates a new scsi *host* for every
Sun Storage Array proessor *device* on the SCSI bus.  I have no clue
why it does this.

I'm sure there's a sane sensible driver or three trying to get out from
inside the pluto/soc/socal/fc4 maze, but I'm not quite sure what form
it should take.

Dave, can you explain what's going on?  I really want to help this
driver fit the current scsi model better, but I don't understand
what it's trying to do.
